This is Frances Verter from the Parents’ Guide to Cord Blood Foundation. I am celebrating the cord blood day of behalf of Royan Stem Cell Technology and I am here with their symbol of culture I received as a gift from them. Royan is the largest cord blood bank in the country of Iran and they are also world class research center in applications of stem cells. For example, they have worked on cord blood transplantation to help children with thalassemia, they have treated children with Cabral Palsy and they have developed Covid 19 therapies with stem cells.
